ANDREA DAMA — Zero Networks

Andrea Dama – Zero Networks opens the Salgari Records SR008 12-inch vinyl with a clear sense of place, weaving balearic warmth through a palette that touches disco, dubby textures and darker electronic tones. The second full-length album from the Argentine producer arrives on 12 November 2026, presenting a percussive and playful atmosphere that feels both sun-lit and nocturnal. Within Salgari’s short catalogue the record follows the label’s earlier outing SR007 “Misteri” by Procida Ritual Project (2024). While “Misteri” explored ritualistic techno, “Zero Networks” shifts the focus toward a breezier, groove-centric side of the imprint, expanding its sonic range without abandoning the label’s penchant for atmospheric depth. Side A begins with “Ruta Maracatu with João Comazzi”, a track that channels the Brazilian percussionist’s rhythmic sensibility into a flowing, dance-floor ready groove. The second cut, “Magnetic Tango with Jolly Mare”, continues the journey, pairing the Italian multi-instrumentalist’s contribution with a melodic contour that feels both intimate and expansive. Closing side A, “Teknodisko Lullaby” offers a quieter, more hypnotic moment, its title suggesting a soothing bridge between the upbeat opener and the deeper cuts that follow. Side B opens with “Children Of The Dark (Freedom Dub)”, a dub-inflected piece that deepens the record’s darker edge while retaining the percussive playfulness introduced earlier. “Tobogàn (X Mix)” follows, its title evoking a sliding, kinetic movement that works well for a peak-time set. “Total Pleasure (Cream Dub)” brings a smoother, more fluid dub texture, providing a contrast to the preceding intensity. The record closes with “Dante’s Dream”, a final statement that feels cinematic and reflective, rounding off the journey with a lingering sense of mystery. For Andrea Dama, “Zero Networks” builds on the momentum of the earlier “Clínica Electrónica” (Hypersoft HYPERSOFT001, 2026). While the previous release leaned into a clinical, precise aesthetic, the new album expands the palette through collaborations with Ernesto Romeo, João Comazzi and Jolly Mare, highlighting a broader, more collaborative approach. In the current underground scene, the record’s blend of balearic breeziness, disco-inflected rhythm and dubby depth situates it comfortably among releases that aim for both emotive listening and club viability. Its varied moods make it adaptable for DJs seeking to move from sunset beach sets to darker, late-night moments without losing continuity. From a collector’s perspective, the 12-inch format offers ample surface for the nuanced percussive layers and the spacious arrangements that define the record. The sequencing—starting with rhythmic vitality, moving through melodic intimacy, and descending into dub-laden depths—provides a logical flow for both crate-digging and set-building. Zero Networks arrives as a 12-inch vinyl release on Salgari Records, catalogue SR008, featuring six tracks that span the A and B sides. Tracklist: A1.
